Waseca,
Correspondence of The Irish Standard.

Among the cities and towns along the
line of the Minneapolis & st. Louis
that deserve more than passing men
tion is that of Waseca. The population
at the present tire numbers about
1900, about one-sixth of whom are of
Irish birth or parentage. There are a
goodly nua.ber of Catholics in the city,
with Rev. Father Christie as parish
priest. In connection with the church
there is temperance society of about
seventy members; also Ladies' Altar
and Sodality societies. A branch of the
Catholic Knights OF America will, in
all probability, be soon organized. The
select school, under the management of
the Sisters of the Holy Child Jesus is
an institution that the people of Wa
SEGA take great pride in without regard
to sect or nationality. There are about
M5 scholars in attendance at present,
As of whom are Professionals. A fire de-
partment of no uncommon proportions,
with NJ. V. Hunt as chief, is a protect
or of the city's interests, and as a vol
unteer department it is in every way an
unqualified success. Among the or
CARNATIONS may also be mentione d that
of the Knights of Labor, whose strength
in the city will compare favorably with
that of any other of it's size and popu-
latiOn in the State.
There are three elevators in Waseca
and foundry. A new city hall is about
to be erected, and system of water
works for the city is another pro-
ject in view for the coming summer.
For this latter purpose bill was
passed at the late session of the Legis-
lature allowing $4,000. In a business
way, coming directly under our obser-
walton, we note the following gentle
men who are prosperlng there: G.. Nc
Kenna, the present county treasurer,
general store; J. B. Hayden, express
agent; Mclaughlin Bros, general
store; Jerome Madden, grocer; P. j.
Dean, grocer; Thomas Bohen, insur-
ance, loan and real estate; Thomas
Boucher, general hardware; Collins
Bros, machinery; B. G. Tierney, cigar
manufacturer: P. Bowe, pillow shop and
feed mill, Elm street; N. j. Breen,
blacksmith; Patrick Moonan, Sheridan
House; Thomas Colman, Waseca
House; M. b. Kelley, grocer; John Ma
loney, Minnesota House. j. P. Meow
ern, county attorney, and DR.. Christie,
both established on Main street, should
not be overlooked here. They are men
who have an extensive practice in their
professions. Messrs. James and Thos.
Lynch, wood and coal dealers, are
thorough Irishmen and excellent citi.
zens of the city in which they live. So
it might be said of Henry Murphy, J. P.
Murphy, John McLin and a host of
others which lack of space forbids a
mention here.
To Mr. James Lynch, who extended
the representative of THE IRISH STAN
DARD many kindly favors while in Wa
SEGA, we return our sincere thanks for
favors bestowed; also to John Madigan
for his voluntary services in behalf of
the paper.
In closing we have only to call the at
tention of our Waseca readers to the
fact that our young friend, John
Moonan, of the Sheridan House, has
kindly consented to become our agent
there. Subscriptions taken by that
gentleman for THE STANDARD will
be promptly acknowledged and re-
ceipted by the management of this
journal.

DouhIe Drowning.

The drowning of the Swick and
Polling children IN Marion town.
ship last Thursday was terrible
affair.
The first named was son oi
Clark Swick and was about two
years old. The little toddler was
knocked from 4 bridge, that spans
q spring run run, by dog running
against him, and failing into the
pool below was drowned before he
could be taken out. The remains
were inferred at the Lutheran
church OH Rushcreek. last Satur-
day. The second victim was a
daughter of Benjamin Polling, and
was not quite two years old. The
child, it appears, had gone to the
spring for a drink, and the water
being low it is supposed. lost its bal
ance as it tried to reach it and fell
head first into the water. When
found, the baby was standing on its
head in the spring having drowned
in less than fourteen inches of wa
ter. Parents can not be too watch
full of their little ones. There should
always be ap eye to their welfare.
The child was buried at Pleasant
Hill, u. B. Church, on Friday.

Glenn Tn fine Town.

Since the cleaning out of cutters
on many of the streets In this place
the grass and weeds that border them
are particularly noticeable. We can
: not say that the crop is edlfyIng to
to the eye. Looking down the vista,
the smooth road bed, the clean gut
tcrs and the stately weeds inter
vening, lack harmony, and the
picture is not pleasing.
But not considering the question
# adornment, we think, the streets
should be elfectusIly cleaned. Ev
cry one knows that more or less
filth accumulates on the streets, and
that if there is nothing to impede
the waters, a heavy rain fall will
wash away the major part Of these
accumulations. If, however, the
grass and weeds are left along the
cutters, the water carries the filth
lust that far and it is left to rot un-
der the intcnse heat of tho summer
sun, while the community must in
hale the poison that emenates from
these streets.
There is simple remedy for such
evils. Some time ago the Council
bought road scrapcr, tina: could
be used very effectually IN removing
the grass from the streets, and it
should be done ut once.
Then again there are many al
leys in town that are over run with weeds.
So intense and prolific is the growth, that
the ST n does not drive out the damp. All
day long these inouldering lanes steam un-
der the burning sun, and have a promin-
ent place among the evils that contribute
to the misery OF the people.
The alleys are made receptacles of dead
rats. cats, droppings from sta bles COW sheds
and pig stys, and ut this time of the year
the stencil arising from them is almost un-
bearable and cannot be but detrimental
to the health of the people who are hedged
in by such surroundings.
The sanitary condition ofa town should
not be matter of consideration merely
when an epidemic has struck it. It should
be the first thing determined when the
summer season opens, and certainly some
one Is authorized to carry out measures
that will purge the town. Very little work
sometimes makes notable decrease in the
mortality of a community.
We would respectfully call the attention
of the Council to many OF the streets and
alleys in Logan. They are in o terrible
condition. Nor would we have the men,
bers consider this q philippe against them.
We simply appeal TO their common sense
to have consummated a work, that will be
Tor the pub lie good and Q safeguard Of the
public health.

A Narrow Escape.

Laura Cook, the grand.daugh-
ter of David Lewis, the black
smith in the East End, visited
his shop Tuesday, and by some
means her dress caught fire.
This was not discovered until
she was sent up town on an er-
rand. She had not lett the shop
but a minute when her
screams called Mr.. Lewis to the
door and he discovered that heI
dress was in a blaze. BY quick
and energetic work, he saved the
child, but burned his hands 10 a
crisp. II will be some time be-
fore Mr.. Lewis will be able to
take his place at the anvil again.
